Cucumber Salad

Now that it’s officially summer, it’s the perfect time for a low-calorie salad that’s quick to pull together. My mother made a similar version of this when I was young. It’s incredibly simple to throw together, yet always a refreshing side and an excellent option for hot summer days.
